I switched away, NC State somehow turned it around and got it to overtime. No one has scored at almost 3 minutes in.

NC State wins it, if the Heels hold on the state of North Carolina will be 3-1 in the Challenge this year.

Michigan in trouble, Dickenson has had 4 fouls since 18:27 in the 2nd half.

The general story of Michigan (early) is that they have maybe one shooter, tops. Year 1/2 teams ran because there were always 2-3 shooters on the floor at a minimum, and sometimes four. So all teams have to do is crowd the paint, sag off a bad shooter, and double/triple Hunter when he gets the ball. Hunter isn't working as a stretch-5 (the off-season shooting videos were fake). The non-Diabate newbies also kinda suck when they were projected to be drastically better.

Howard tried a two-big lineup to find Other Ways To Score and that kinda worked until Hunter caught his 4th. And that only sortakinda worked when only one of the three was a reliable shooter (but Brooks was bricking). Hunter might not actually be Very Good if he's not surrounded by shooters.

edit: 33-7 with 3:54 left in the first. should honestly fire him after this game but we don't have rich enough boosters to afford the payout

Too lazy to look, but I'm pretty sure he was good at Tennessee, and one of the things blamed for the post-Baby Boilers downturn was losing him as a recruiter.

So rather than working, I looked it up.

He got Missouri St into the top 25, but never the tournament. He won one of the lesser March tournaments, a regular season MVC title when they still had Creighton, but lost the conference tournament championship and ended up a 2nd round NIT team.

He replaced Pearl at Tennessee and had 2 more NITs and a Sweet 16.

At Cal he had at least one big recruiting class, missed the post season his first year, lost first round his 2nd, and NIT 1st round his third. Left for Mizzou after that.

So overall, not great, especially with the talent he brought in.

Frankie running around like a jackrabbit on speed should probably make him the starting point guard going forward. SDSU is a top-10 defense and they're getting carved up late by a Diabate-less (sick) Michigan.

(Also hunter is 3/3 from 3 so lol)

NC State came back from 12 down at the half against Louisville to take a 4-point lead with 3 minutes left and I was disturbingly close to believing in them but fortunately they just tossed up absolute garbage shots from there and lost without scoring any more points

He just doesn't have "it", the offense always seems stuck in mud and he commits the dumbest fouls possible.

Then Frankie hits the floor and he's running all the gently caress over, trying to dunk over two dudes (lol - but I thought he got fouled), and going for a baseline jumping between-the-legs pass to a cutter (and hit his leg instead, but got fouled). poo poo just looked fun again when he was on the court and that's probably repeatable on a wore-shooting day.
